SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for families The Dufour 460 is a comfortable, well-equipped four-cabin cruiser that sleeps eight, making it perfect for families or two couples wanting separate space without compromise. The 2018 build means everything is modern and reliable, which matters when you're flying thousands of miles to a charter base.

Well-spec'd for cruising Elizabeth comes with genuinely useful kit—autopilot, bow thruster, electric winches, and solar panels all reduce fatigue on longer passages. The air conditioning, heating, and generous cockpit comfort (teak, cushions, bimini) mean you'll actually enjoy downtime at anchor, not just the sailing itself.

Fair value proposition At this size and age with four cabins, the pricing sits in sensible territory for a bareboat. A €2000 deposit is reasonable, though you'll want to confirm the weekly rate and base location (that's missing from the listing) to judge true value.

One real note The operator has just one review—so while it's five stars, there's limited track record to assess reliability, support during your charter, or how they handle problems. Before committing, ask past charterers directly about their experience with GA Holidays and response times if things go wrong mid-week.

Frequently asked questions
Can Elizabeth be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Elizabeth bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Elizabeth?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
